Competition entry - background story

To the youngsters the call for arms came as a nice surprise.

Leopold Oakmill was in a great mood having dug out his grandfathers old shield and carried it proudly along with his spear.Adi, his servant, was less excited. Probably due to his obligations to his master.

However, even as they strode forth to the mustering at the Red Hen Inn the unholy powers had already infested the lands. Thus the sharp-eyed could spot the signs of evil in both beasts and plants. Strange fungus growths with vile scents sprounting from the ground and mutations among the creatures of the soil were obvious marks of discord in the natural order of things.

A bit of fiction to go with my entry for a Danish painting competition.
I posted a teaser a few weeks back.
The actual model will be revealed one of the next few days...

ABOUT

I work a lot with the same models, moods, even the same bits. Miniatures and bits in particular are part of my 3D language. Sculpting and painting adds more signs to the work or TEXT as some might call it.

This is a place for me to share and discuss modelling and miniature painting projects. My own projects as well as miniatures and works/texts from where I find inspiration.
